The 2016 annual shoebox appeal has now been launched with local people donating essential items to show the homeless across Swansea and Neath Port Talbot that they aren’t being forgotten about this winter.

Hats, scarves, gloves, socks, blankets and Christmas treats are all needed along with any new toiletry and sanitary items.

Please drop off your shoeboxes by 2nd December at Payton Jewell Caines, Station Road, Port Talbot.
